The Brute Beast

But these, like natural brute beasts made to be caught and destroyed, speak evil of the things they do not understand, and will utterly perish in their own corruption, and will receive the wages of unrighteousness, as those who count it pleasure to carouse in the daytime. They are spots and blemishes, carousing in their own deceptions while they feast with you, having eyes full of adultery and that cannot cease from sin, enticing unstable souls. They have a heart trained in covetous practices, and are accursed children. ~ 2 Peter 2:12-14

These are people who operate like brute beasts in that they depend on their own failed reasoning and their natural senses to survive. In the same way animals learn what works and doesn’t work, these people can experiment and learn what works. However, the truth escapes them. They may teach physics or geography at the university. They may run a cash register in a gas station. However, they don’t have access to the truth. They operate based on pragmatism.

But these rail at whatsoever things they know not: and what they understand naturally, like the creatures without reason, in these things are they destroyed. ~ Jude 1:10

Other versions use the word “instinct.” It seems God has given humanity some basic instincts just like animals have instincts. Without the Holy Spirit and the truth that flows from God, they can’t understand spiritual things. They can’t understand the truth about material things. However, there are things they understand naturally. They can find out what works and doesn’t work. For instance, they can do science. They can function in a career. They can grumble, complain, do what they desire, boast, flatter, and gain advantage. They are skilled in doing evil.

These are grumblers, complainers, walking according to their own lusts; and they mouth great swelling words, flattering people to gain advantage. But you, beloved, remember the words which were spoken before by the apostles of your Lord Jesus Christ: how they told you that there would be mockers in the last time who would walk according to their own ungodly lusts. These are sensual persons, who cause divisions, not having the Spirit. ~ Jude 1:16-19

These are sensual persons. They depend on their senses to guide them rather than the Holy Spirit. Every one of these verses is referring to people inside the church. These are Christians. These verses also apply to unbelievers. However, God is talking about those inside the church who are lacking the Holy Spirit.
